 Central Treaty Organization - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Unlike NATO, CENTO did not have a unified military command structure, nor were many U.S. or UK military bases established in member countries, although the U.S. had communications and electronic intelligence facilities in Iran, and operated U-2 intelligence flights over the U.S.S.R. from bases in Pakistan.

Although American pressure, along with promises of military and economic largesse, were key in the negotiations leading to the agreement, the United States chose not to initially participate as to avoid alienating Arab states with which it was still attempting to cultivate friendly relations.

 Cento
In the past, however, centos were most often serious works which created something new while honoring treasured works of earlier poets, much as writers of haiku borrow words, lines and ideas from Basho and other classical poets.
Cento is the Latin word for patchwork, as in patchwork quilt.
These days, centos are often humorous, wittily juxtaposing famous lines in a new context, furnishing humor and gathering admiration for dexterity and imagination.

The cento evidently originated in ancient Greece; examples are found in Aristophanes's plays where lines have been usurped from Aeschylus and Homer.
It is a verse composed entirely of lines or phrases from the work of other authors.
It's not enough to simply choose random lines; the patchwork poem itself should make some kind of sense.

 JewishEncyclopedia.com - CENTO
The community that numbered 150 persons in 1865 has been reduced to 34 (in 1902); it possesses a new synagogue and a cemetery.
In 1505 Duke Ercole d'Este decreed that the Jewish inhabitants of Cento should share, as far as they were able, the contributions of their coreligionists in the duchy of Ferrara.
This fact is probably attributable in part to the small number of the immigrants from Spain.

 Adrian Stokes: The Quattro Cento and Stones of Rimini
This new edition of The Quattro Cento and Stones of Rimini presents the original texts of 1932 and 1934 and furnishes them with introductions by David Carrier and Stephen Kite that will help readers grasp the structure and significance of what have become Stokes's most widely cited and influential books.
Stokes continued, even extended, John Ruskin's and Walter Pater's belief that art is essential to the individual's proper psychological development but wove their teaching into a new aesthetic shaped by his experience of psychoanalysis with Melanie Klein and recent innovations in literature, dance, and the visual arts.
Few writers have been able to invoke the material presence of works of art in the way Stokes does in The Quattro Cento and Stones of Rimini.
